Our Tea Favourites

Each month, we invite you to step into the day of a Twinings team member, discovering the blends they love most and how they weave them into life’s moments.

We hope their day in tea and simple rituals inspire you to find a new favourite of your own.

It Starts With...

A cup of Strong English Breakfast

I like to begin my day with a cup that means business – Strong English Breakfast. For me, it’s the perfect wake-up call.

I make a cup of tea first thing, so I can sip it whilst I'm either getting ready to go to the office, or whilst I make my go-to breakfast of poached eggs on sourdough toast. And my soundtrack? Always Radio 1. It's my morning alarm for that much-needed first cup.

What does it taste like?

Strong by name, strong by nature. Think of your classic breakfast tea, only bolder, richer, and brimming with flavour from the very first sip.

Followed By...

A cup of Pure Peppermint

I then like to ease into a soothing herbal infusion. My go-to is a cup of Pure Peppermint. It's a gentle reset that helps me rebalance thanks to its cool, minty taste.

This tea is always in a big mug, glass if I'm in the office. Whenever I need a break or need to slow down from work or life, I'll reach for a peppermint tea.

What does it Taste Like?

Crisp and velvety, with the freshness of summer-green peppermint. Cool, sweet, and deliciously lingering.

For Lunchtime...

A cup of Superblends Digest

At midday, I like to keep the mint momentum going with a cup of Superblends Digest. This mellow, refreshing blend brings together nature’s classic after-dinner helper - spearmint - with baobab, plus the gentle sweetness of apple and rooibos.

What does it taste like?

Refreshing spearmint is followed by a soft sweetness from the apple and rooibos. The ginger is very subtle, leaving a soothing warmth after each sip. Light and gentle.

Beating the Afternoon Slump With...

A Matcha Latte

I’ve been known to whip up a few Matcha Lattes in the office, but my personal favourite is an ice-cold Matcha latte. Perfect for that mid-afternoon lull.

Twinings Organic Matcha Powder is ceremonial grade, sourced directly from family farms in Kagoshima and Shizuoka, Japan.

What does it taste like?

Finely ground to a vibrant lime-green powder, this matcha is as beautiful as it is delicious. Expect fresh, grassy notes, a dense and velvety texture, and a subtly savoury finish. Enjoy with a sweet treat, or blend into lattes, smoothies, and shakes.

Ending The Day With...

A cup of Superblends Calm

After a long day in the office, I like to end on a soothing note with a cup of Superblends Calm. It’s my cue to take a deep breath and carve out a little time just for me. With added niacin (Vitamin B3) to support normal psychological function, it’s a gentle reminder to pause and reset.

My cup of Calm is my bedtime tea. I take it upstairs, climb into bed, and let it set the tone for the evening. Whether I’m reading, chatting with my partner about the day, or practising my new hobby (I’m currently attempting a cotton dishcloth as I learn to knit). It’s the perfect companion for my wind-down routine.

What does it taste like?

This is a smooth, delicate, lightly spiced blend with a lovely hint of sweetness. The chicory root brings a gorgeous roasted flavour and a touch of indulgence.
